Unfortunately there is not yet any function that allows you to get a list of users with the same role from the ACL. Roles are intended solely for access control, not for mailing purposes - although I can see why you would want to send a mail using the role as recipient list.
But, if you cannot do it with Formulas, you can use LScript to find out who has the role by analyzing the ACL - only that is akin to using an anvil to crush a walnut.
An easier solution would be to create a group and assign the role to the group, but that requires Admin abilities and probably managerial approval.
Pascal.
I've got nothing to hide, and I'd very much like to keep that away from prying eyes.
